Introduction
The SPEAR is lightweight and portable UAS that boasts a robust composite airframe, tool-less assembly, and payload capability greater than the empty weight of the platform. The unique modularity provides for the customization, upgrade or replacement of any component without the necessity of purchasing an entirely new system. The two removable payload sections coupled with the independent shifting wing and shifting payload pod ease integration and support various payload requirements. The front of the fuselage can accommodate a gimbaled camera to support a variety of ISR applications.
